Diesel May Care: Quest For The Ten-Second Car by nintendoeats
Vin Diesel needs a ten-second car. As James May, you are tasked with getting it. Since all the Top Gear money is gone, your gonna have to steal some parts!
The interface at first appears complex, but the game is actually fairly simple. Can you find the secret ending?
P.S. If you like the title screen music, please mention it :)
******If you've tried the game and can't figure it out, here's how it works******
Black Screen: Click on parts inside the car being ripped off to take them. This takes time. GTFO before you get caught!
Blue Screen: Click on parts in the parts list to put them on your car. This also takes time.
Build a ten-second car and call Vin Diesel when you are ready for him to test it out!
// bugFix: GTFOing during job would break further ripoff attempts. Fixed.
// bugfix: Some text was not being cleared between scenes. Fixed.
// featureAdd: You can now skip the intro video by pressing escape

I should have seen this coming, I had the same problem with my last entry :p
There's plenty of humor in this game, specially for Top Gear fans. The interface seems daunting at first, but you'll figure your way out sooner than you expect.
Crash testing cars was never so fun.
Rating: 7/10 would play again.
Innovation: Modified "upgrade-and-run-forever" game. Partially original.
Fun: start is confusing but then, you can't stop!
Theme: nothing to blame.
Graphics: awfully bad! Just look at the intro! So, sadly 1/5, but who cares if every other aspects of the game is adorable?!
Audio: silly and hilarious sounds everywhere.
Humor: *warning! variable overflow*
Mood: ehm...what should I feel? I mean, I don't have any pianos. nvm
You've seen graphics complaints a few times now, let me be more specific: I think the interface design concept is adequate (though the layout is a bit busy) but the pixelated low-color art juxtaposed with the perfect antialiased text feels bad.
The main screenshot scared the heck out of me, but it was as straight forward as advertised once I got into it. The mechanic was fun in itself (although I never understood if I had any way to affect how much time I had available during rip-off sessions). Where the game really shines is the writing, excellent work. You had me laughing throughout. :)
Just a side note : I thought the game was buggy ( parts I stole would not appear ) until I realized you can scroll down parts lists. You should mention it in game description.
I do like the idea though. I havn't watched either top gear or gone in sixty seconds, so I can only assume the game is even funnier than it already appears to be.
